Michigan football recruits decommit from program amid Sherrone Moore scandal

At least two college football recruits who committed to the University of Michigan have decommitted from the program in the wake of coach Sherrone Moore's recent firing and arrest. 

Offensive lineman Bear McWhorter announced his decommitment in an X post Friday. McWhorter had been committed to Michigan since February. 

McWhorter's decision came one day after tight end recruit Matt Ludwig told Rivals he was granted a release from his signing with Michigan Thursday. Ludwig then committed to Texas Tech Friday, according to Rivals.

Moore was fired Wednesday, and the University of Michigan quickly announced it found credible evidence of an "inappropriate relationship" with a staffer. Moore was then detained by police Wednesday after news of his dismissal broke. 

Moore was arraigned in court Friday on stalking and home invasion charges. According to prosecutors, he faces a felony charge of home invasion in the third degree and two misdemeanor charges of stalking and breaking and entering without the owner’s permission.
